You'll be riding over with the cake for him then?

Been out to see the flooded area locally, wow! I can see farmland about 2 miles x 3 miles totally under about 6ft of water, including a mile long section of one of the main routes into Lincoln, my heart goes out to the farmers.

Hard to believe. I can imagine maybe two inches of flood but six feet

Good morning - It's brighter out there today. We can't get out because of Mrs mart's illness but it's good to look out on some sunshine anyway.

We got a surprise visit from our daughter yesterday. She lives in Spain now but came here because it was 75 years ago yesterday that my parents inflicted me on the World.

We normally only take notice of 'decade' birthdays but it was nice that she went through the bother and expense to be here on my 75th.

She goes back to Spain this evening.

Have the best day possible.

Happy Birthday Mart4475, have a good 'un! 🎂


Just back from another delightful London Sunday Ride, 38 brompton miles for me.

Wish I knew got to get a video somebody out on face B on here, they did a drone shot of where the river burst over the walls to start the flood.

I have plenty of cake if anyone wants to come all the way here for it.

A lot of the area around here is very low level, you drive uphill away from the river to get to our house which is a huge 35ft above sea level.

I've been thinking...soamy parliamentary candidates have stood down this week due to stupid/sexist/racist/downright bizarre stuff they've said on social media the house of commons will be empty. At this rate no one anywhere will have a job because of sheet they've spouted on social media, apart from the odd few like me who aren't daft enough to join Twitbook or Snapgram.

I've said for a long time that the country will eventually become ungovernable because of the internet, social media, political correctness and the victimhood culture.
All these factors seem to be coming together in a perfect storm.

 

[Drago]

I think you've right Papa Dirkie. And when it all comes to a shuddering halt I'll be ready.

Night Johnboy.

Not sounding good outside, the rain is hammering down which is only going to add to the floods.
